Human Error is present in all walks of life, in all types of workplaces, and affects any or all of us at some point in the day, whether we are at work, driving home, or involved in extracurricular activities. It affects both our physical and mental capabilities, and can play havoc with desired results at work, and with safety and efficiency.

Human Factors training will help to bring the most common causes of errors to the forefront, so that they can be recognized, and safety nets can be put into place to prevent their re-occurrence

The culture of the workplace starts at the top levels, and is crucial to a safe outcome at the end of the day, affecting AME's, pilots, production, R & O, managers, owners, apprentices...... everyone involved in the operation will be affected by the safe, or unsafe, culture. 

The frequency, repetition, and severity of errors, incidents and accidents in your workplace will give a clue as to the culture....a safe working culture will have minimal occurrences, and the slips, lapses and errors made by people will be investigated and corrected in a just, and fair, manner.
